One Earth Carpet Cleaner and Rinse

BACKGROUND
One Earth™ Carpet Cleaner & Rinse is a general-purpose carpet cleaner for use on water-cleanable carpets.
The product is quite versatile and can be used in multiple cleaning systems including:

Prespray
Rinse Extraction
Low moisture cleaning

One Earth Carpet Cleaner & Rinse is compatible with both portable and truck mount extraction systems. The product includes water conditioning agents and an alkaline builder; it leaves no sticky residues.
Because One Earth Carpet Cleaner & Rinse generates no foam, the extraction process is more efficient. Foam interferes with extraction, especially in portable equipment. The product has zero volatile organic compounds and no known allergens, so it is ideal for use around sensitive populations.
One Earth Carpet Cleaner & Rinse is certified by UL Environmental under the EcoLogo soft surface 2795 standard as an environmentally preferable product. It is safe for use on water-cleanable wool.

USE INSTRUCTIONS

PREPARATION OF READY-TO-USE (RTU) SOLUTION
Dilution instructions for prespray. For pressure sprayer application: Add 6 ounces of concentrate with enough water to make one gallon of ready-to-use solution (47 mL/L). (20:1) Use cold tap water.
Dilution instructions for rinse agent: Add 2 ounces of concentrate with enough cold water to make one gallon of ready-to-use solution (16 mL / L). (64:1).
Dilution instructions for low moisture cleaning processes: Add 2 ounces of concentrate with enough water to make 1 gallon (64:1). Use cold water.

CLEANING PROCEDURES – EXTRACTION:
a. Preinspect / prequalify / pretreat spots as needed. Be sure to check for the compatibility of the product with the carpet.
b. Post wet floor signs as needed. Vacuum the carpet thoroughly. The vacuuming step is often overlooked because it is so labor-intensive. Proper vacuuming, however, removes as much as 80% of dry, particulate soil. Vacuuming reduces the probability of wicking during the drying process.
c. Apply RTU solution at the rate of 0.5 gallons per 100 square feet of carpet. (2 L per 10 M 2 ). Avoid overspray on surfaces not being cleaned.
d. Allow adequate dwell time but do not allow the solution to dry on the carpet. If the solution dries, extra time will be necessary to retreat the carpet to dissolve the product residues as well as the soil.
e. For best results, use agitation to work the RTU solution into the carpet fibers.
f. Rinse extract with 1:64 solution.
g. Groom the carpet to align fibers. This improves carpet appearance and reduces drying time.
h. Use sufficient airflow to assure that the carpet will dry quickly. The AirPath™ air mover is recommended because of its 360-degree high-velocity airflow.

CLEANING PROCEDURES – LOW MOISTURE
Follow steps A and B as described above. Use 1:64 RTU solution for the liquid portion of your low moisture system.

CLEANUP

Be sure to check for any overspray. Remove these spills promptly.
Dispose of wastewater and any unused products and use solutions properly in accordance with local, state, and Federal regulations. Never dispose of wastewater into rivers, streams, or lakes.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Use the personal protective equipment specified in the SDS.
